"We now have 1870 inches OF devel-
oped water, and have spent $1O0, 600
in the work, and during the next Six
months we expect to expend 81, ,5OO,-.
600 in piping water already developed
and making that which is developed
available" d,
"The attitude of the men engaged
in preventing either side from taking
possession of the plant has been ex-
ceedingly menaciDg, and any attempt
on the part of either side to perpetrate
indignities on the other would have GER
tainly resulted in much bloodshed,
and an embryo war would have been
imminent. We have reason to be-
lieve that we will be granted the in

known as the third button which
stretches him gasping for breath on
the floor. Vowing vengeance on
his assailant, the scribe arms
himself with well-heeled
boot, and once more approaching the
couch introduces himself with gentle
attack on the sleeper's shoulder. The
effect proves electrical. There is q
sudden bound, a mighty oath, and
the next minute the moon shines
down on bloody scene. Two strong
men stand grappling each other in
that haunt of Morpheus, and the air
resounds with muttered CALCULATIONS
that cause all the good angels within
hearing distance to stop their ears
with virtuous indignation while they
look affrighted on. blows resound
with sullen thud, and just as
the contest reaches its climax the door
bursts open, and attired in midnight
raiment fearful to behold, mine host
breaks in upon the scene armed with
pouderous-looking baton, and pro-
ceeds to separate the combatants.
Then follows mutual apologies and
explanations, brandy bottle is pro,
duced, loving cup passed round,
and all hands proceed to arrange a
temporary resting place upon the floor
for the HERALD man vows solemnly
that he would not risk another such
experience. All is at length settled,
the candle once more extinguished
and the scribe soon passes into a state
of dreamy forgetfulness, from which
he wakes not until disturbed the next
morning by the ever-welcome sounc
of "br akfast," when over the festive
board all mirthfully review the ex
periences of the past few hours.

NINE YEARS.
The Sentence of w. +. ROzefie-
Given by Judge Gardiner.

w. F. Rozelle, who was convicted
some time since in Department 2 Of
the Superior Court for aiding and
abettlng his wife, Mrs. Grettie Rozelle,
in throwing vitriol upon G. r. Petrie,
was yesterday called before Judge
Gardiner for sentence, and received
nine years at San Quentin. In pro-
nouncing sentence Judge Gardiner
briefly reviewed the history of the
case, expatiating somewhat upon its
most revolving features and stating
that the unaggravated nature OF the
offense had almost induced him to
pronounce full sentence fourteen
years., but after mature deliberation
and reflection he had been able to
detect one mitigating feature, i. e..
that of his martial relations being in
teriered with by Petrie, and had Ro-
zelle acted the part of man
in this instance and gone to
him and demanded personal salts
faction, instead of obliging his wife to
avenge herself in the manner she did,
he would have been constrained some
what to deal lightly with him; but the
nefarious procedure of Rozelle and the
utter lack of manhood evinced had
induced him to make the sentence
much heavier than he would have
done under different circumstances.
At the Jail Rozelle was seen by a
HERALD reporter, who upon accosting
him was roundly denounced-not per-
sonally, but as member OF the news
paper fraternity in general.
When questioned he said; "l have
nothing to say. | won't talk. If it
hadn't been for the papers / would
not be behind the bars to-day"
When questioned as to what man.
ner the newspapers were responsible
for his being behind the bars he said
nothing, but turned ON his heel and
walked away; but returning presently
said: "You fellows have had your
day, and mine will come"
''Did you say that you would not go
to San Quentin unless accompanied by
your wife ?" queried the scribe.
"rhat's none OF your business; and
you needn't see my wife, for she won't
say anything"
Rozelle presents a very uncouth,
| slovenly appearance since his coniine-
ment and still maintains that defiant,
supercilious demeanor which cost him
so much upon the witness stand. He
eats heartily and is always ready for
beans, which are special feature OF
prison fare.
1t was learned that he was striving,
by pawning one or two trunks con-
tanning clothes belonging to his wife,
to raise money with which to pay his
lawyers-in all about SIS.
The defiant attitude which Rozelle
has maintained since his incarceration
is subject of much unfavorable COM
ment by the prison officials, and it is
stated that Rozelle had told fellow
prisoner that he was in the closet at
the time Mrs. Rozelle threw the Wit
riol on Petrie.
1t was the intention to send him
north yesterday, but his attorneys
asked for stay of execution of SEN
tence until Saturday, which was
granted by the Court, while motion
for new trial was denied.
Mrs. Rozelle will be left in desti'
tute condition when he is taken north
since he has sold her clothing and be-
longings in order to pay attorneys
fees. He was remanded to the Gus
tody of the Sheriff until next Satur
! day.

AZUSA WATER.
Views of J. 3. Phillips Upon the
Matter.

j. s. Phillips, the superintendent OF
the Azusa Water Company, one of the
litigants in the famous water-right
case, said yesterday, "We hope to
settle the matter in an amicable man.
ner in the near future. We ask moth
ing but what is right and have en-
deavored to compromise in every con-
ceiveable manner"
"We do not now, never have and
never expect to deprive the old set
tiers OF ahy water which justly be-
longs to them, our only claim being to
that water which we developed and
the surplus water to which we are
Justly entitled, by reason of having
developed it. We are perfectly will
ing to leave the matter to any five
business men in the city
and feel perfectly satisfied OF being ex-
onerated of all charges Of encroach-
ment."

NOT ENDED.
'Ehc Danglada Breach of Pron-
isc Suit.

The breach of promise case which
held the boards in Judge O'Melveny's
for q few days last week is not at an
end, although the fair plaintiff, Emile
Dunglada was allowed $4,000 dam
ages as prayed for by her.
1t seems that some time last June
the defendant in the case, Jesus Elias,
made a deed to Jesus Garcid to GER
tain real estate valued at $4,000 wi tn
the evident intention OF placing it in y
position in which it could not be con-
fiscated in the event of Miss Dan
glada being allowed damages against
him.
The plaintiff, Miss Danglada, now
resumes her charges and wishes the
Court to declare the deed null and void
and to order the sale of the property
to satisfy the judgment which she
now holds against Elias.

D.cd of Too Much Money.

A Boston man who, until he was 40,
lived an economic, Woodworking life, and
one which was both happy and useful,
had the misfortune ut that time to in
herit from a relative a fortune Of some
millions. He was instantly overwhelmed
with opportunities from all sides. Gifted
with an acutely sensitive New England
conscience he was not only anxious to do
good with his wealth, but he was almost
morbidly afraid that through ignorance
or carelessness he should &c harm with it.
He investigated with the most painful
care the cases presented to him and he
literally agonized over the things he de-
sired to do, that he feared to do and those
that he was urged TO do. Two years of
this worry killed him. His physician
said afterward that the certificate to be
accurate should have been filed out to
read, Oiled Of his money" and the state
ment would have been literally true

SEEING THE G%UILLoTlNE.


uuEo's Account of IN English LRdy's
Visit to the Paris Exeoutioner.
NJ Samson lived IN the Rue du Marais
du Temple, IN an isolated house, Of which
the jalousics were always closed. He re-
ccived many visits. Numbers of English
people went to see him. When visitors
presented themselves at NJ. Sanson's they
were introduced into an elegant reception
room on the ground floor, furnished en-
tirely with mahogany, in the midst of
which there was al excellent piano, al
ways open and provided with pieces of
music. Shortly afterward M. Samson mr.
rived and asked his visitors to be seated.
The conversation turned upon one subject
and another. Generally the English peo-
pie asked to see the guillotine. NJ. San
son complied with this request, no doubt
for some consideration, and conducted
the ladies and gentlemen to the adjoining
street, 1.-THE Ru Albony, 1 think, to the
house of the scaffold manufacturer.
There was a shed at this place, where the
the guillotine was permanently erected.
rh strangers grouped themselves around
IL and 1t was made to work. Trusses of
hay were guillotined.
One day an English family, consisting
OF the father, the mother and three pretty
daughters, fair and with rosy cheeks, pre-
scented themselves at Sanson's residence.
1t was In order to see the guillotine. San
son took them to the carpenters and set
the instrument at work. The knife fell
and rose again several times at the re-
quest of the young ladies. One of them,
however, the youngest, was not satisfied
with this. She made the e%xecutioner ex-
plain to her In the minutest details
Is called the toilet OF the condemned.
Still she was not satisfied. At length she
turned hesitatlngly toward tho execu-

No man, however, is thoroughly
equipped and thoroughly qualified to fill
the position of managing editor with just
ness and fairness to readers, as well as
to workers, who has not done a reporters
work, and done it for years, in all its
devious departments. 1 believe, too, that
no experience is so well calculated to fit a
man to do work upon the editorial page as
that which the reporter does, though it is
a notorious fact that the great body OF
editorial writers are ignorant OF the ex-
perience which falls to the lot of the re-
porter. The EDITORS life, his absence of
opportunities for contact with men-or
rather for contact with all classes of men
many times result In his mistaking the
proper position for his paper to assume.
The life of the reporter is calculated to
make him pre-eminently a man of the
people, and to give him an insight into
men and measures such as is found in no
other department of newspaper work.
Such success as is attained by the average
editorial writer in nine cases out of ten
comes from such vision as he may enjoy
through the window of intelligence which
the reporter may provide, and some men
have a wonderful faculty of seeing well
through the reporters eyes.-J. N. Mind
in The Writer.
